[4.0] Install from Web missing extensions #58

Closed brianteeman closed 3 years ago

brianteeman commented 3 years ago

I don't know if this is a JED team issue, a Install from Web plugin issue or what but The install from web plugin is only displaying extensions that are marked as compatible with joomla 4 alpha. It is not including extensions that are marked as compatible with Joomla 4 Beta

To make it even harder to find extensions you will also see that extension on JED are shown with a 4Alpha tag on search views and then (where appropriate) a 4beta tag on the individual item view.

So I suspect that there are multiple bugs here

This issue has been moved to the webinstaller server repo on request by @Llewellynvdm

brianteeman commented 3 years ago

Shame no one actually reads

Llewellynvdm commented 3 years ago

The current JED3 is not being further developed, as it is going to be replaced with JED4 which by design is already solving these issues.

So the rest of the issue is related to this repository/extension that is used to populate the web-install, and seems like the best place to have this conversation.

brianteeman commented 3 years ago

so you are happy that joomla 4 will be released while the jed is broken?

Llewellynvdm commented 3 years ago

Happy? who can be happy about that...

The JED is only going to get fixed with Joomla 4 and the JED4 extension that runs native on Joomla 4, until then we are patching a sinking ship that was build and implemented long before my time in the JED.

The fact that we moved the issue here, is me saying I want to look at this and fix what we can in the current system as much as we can.

Where the JED is now and why, is clearly understood by the JED Team, and they are doing all they can to be ready for Joomla 4.

Llewellynvdm commented 3 years ago

This was resolved far as I can tell with the tag update we did on the JED.
